Title: My new printer

It does cable or WiFi

It will test print happily to WiFI but when I go to print a doc it demands a piece of string insisting that it is not connected   Banghead Banghead Banghead

Wiv a cable?

Sometimes it pays to use a cable to set up the printer and then switch to wireless when it is working via cable.

Yes

There's your problem . . . .

Cheap though.

The problem is that it needs it's IP memory purged.

Remove the paper from the tray and place the printer in a warm bath with a tablespoon of washing up liquid.

Leave it for 30 minutes to ensure all the corrupt data has been removed, then remove and place on a pile of newspapers for an hour.

Re-load the paper and switch on. You will find you can no longer print a test page with WIFI or cable.

Job done.  :thumbsup:
